Hell on the Wabash
text:
Hell on the Wabash is a 19th-century American folk tune, still popular with Fife and drum corps. The tune first appeared as a banjo jig in a compilation of tunes published by Dan Emmett before 1860. Hans Nathan described Hell on the Wabash as a variant of an Irish hornpipe called “The Night We Made the Match.” Andrew Kuntz places the melody in the same family as "Hell on the Potomac" and "Wake Up Susan." Hell on the Wabash appeared again in 1862, as a fife and drum duet in The Drummer’s and Fife
